  Sense-Data (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Sense data are the (alleged) mind-dependent objects that we are directly aware of in perception, and that have exactly the properties they appear to have.
Critics of sense data have objected to the theory’s commitment to mind-body dualism, its difficulty in locating sense data in physical space, and its apparent commitment in some cases to sense data that have indeterminate properties.
Sense data theorists may wish to respond to this problem by denying (pace Ayer) that the properties of one's sense data are always transparent to one.

  Sense-Data (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy/Summer 2004 Edition)
Sense data are the (alleged) mind-dependent objects that we are directly aware of in perception, and that have exactly the properties they appear to have.
Second, condition (ii): Sense data theorists believe that the things we are directly aware of in perception are dependent on the mind of the perceiver — they cannot exist unperceived.
The sense data theory was very popular, perhaps the orthodox view in the philosophy of perception, in the early twentieth century.

 Seismic interpretation of H-SENSE data and sub-bottom characterization using chirp sonar technology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
This is done by interpreting the seismic data and with the use of derivations from the reflection coefficient generated by the sub-bottom profiler.
The sensed signal is then converted into an analogue electrical voltage, which in its turn, is converted to mechanical movements of a recording pen of a plotter.
To prevent data loss due to this the survey vessel had to be careful maneuvered to prevent inserting too much air in the water though gas bubbles from the organic sediments could not be avoided.

 Sense-Data (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
For instance, sense data theorists say that, upon viewing a tomato in normal conditions, one forms an image of the tomato in one’s mind.
Sense data, on this view, are things that one may perceive not by virtue of perceiving anything else.

 Brains: First-person Data vs. Sense Data
Sense data are a kind of mental entity postulated by a now largely discredited theory of perception to serve a certain epistemological purpose.
But unless first-person data are illegimitately identified with the mental states (and unless the introspecting subject is mistakenly seen as the scientific observer of the mind, a la classical introspectionism), I see no reason to say that first-person data are private.
One might ask whether the data are (a) a bunch of temperatures and pressures at times or (b) a bunch of measurements of temperatures and pressures at times or (c) a bunch of representations of temperatures and pressures at times.

Often data is stored in a more indirect way: groove modulation on phonograph records, magnetized particles on tape, or hills and valleys on a plastic disc.
Digital data's greatest strength and weakness is that it is easily copied and spread across the world in a matter of minutes.
Data protection utilizes copy protection to lock the decryptor to a physical key, but also consists of encryption and decryption.

 Emotions: The Manifold of Sense
Sense awareness does not include introspection because the subject of introspection is supposed to be mental, unreal, states.

Sense Data and the Percept Theory- Roderick Firth, 1949-50.
But the second objection to the Sense- datum Theory has implications which are even more serious, especially for those theories which maintain that physical objects are all, in some more or less literal sense, "composed of" sense-data (or of possible sense-data).
And the theory that physical objects are in some sense "composed of" sense-data is either false or tautological, of course, if it is understood that physical objects are themselves sense-data.

 Data Ownership: INLS 258, Fall 1999
But in a real world sense, it also encapsulates complex business relationships between owners and users in addition to the issue of individual's control over his or her personal data and what may result from the sale of such data.
Data ownership has major implications for both government and private industry in terms of how systems are managed internally and how processes are outsourced to independent contractors.
Data about us and our actions is collected by companies without our knowledge every day, and it may be up to us to claim ownership to this information.

 Wittgenstein et les sense data
Philosophers at Oxford may have been diverted by Austin into close examination of linguistic minutiae which Wittgenstein would have passed by, but when it came to the application of such results to specific philosophical questions, there was often little discernible difference between their tactical moves.
Now when one uses the word “sense datum”, one should be clear about the peculiarity of its grammar.
Queerly enough, the introduction of this new phraseology has deluded people into thinking that they have discovered new entities, new elements of the structure of the world, as though to say “I believe that there are sense data” were similar to saying “I believe that matter consists of electrons”.

 The Manifold of Sense
Kant postulated the existence of a "manifold of sense" – the data supplied to the mind through sensation.
Perception is thought to be comprised of the sensory phase – its subjective aspect – and of the conceptual phase.
If more sense data (than internal data) are involved and the component of internal data is weak in comparison (it is never absent) – we are likely to experience Transitive Emotions.

 SENSE DATA AND THE PERCEPT THEORY
And it is but one small additional step from this to the recognition that the same holds true of qualities fittingly described by such adjectives as "reptilian", "feline", "ethereal", "substantial", and perhaps most of the adjectives in the dictionary.
Whatever the manner of expression, however, the phenomenological fact is simply that in perception we are conscious, in one sense of the word, of physical objects, without at the same time being conscious, in another sense of the word, of the entities which have traditionally been called "sense-data".
These qualities are presented as qualities of the object; indeed they are in no sense abstracted or otherwise distinguished from the presented object; and they are not limited to the qualities which have traditionally been mentioned in descriptions of sense-data.
